This month marks one year since Horrendous brought the metal realm to its knees in worship of Ontological Mysterium. After exploding from the underground in 2018 with the cultishly beloved Idol, last year, the Philadelphia death metal band were the toast of the genre’s critics.
Metalheads everywhere are still having a hard time deciding whether to crown Ontological Mysterium or The Enduring Spirit as the best album of 2023. They don’t have to choose any longer, because Horrendous are going on tour with Tomb Mold.
Horrendous just put out one of the best albums of the year according to Metal Sucks, Metal Injection and Decibel.
When Horrendous started working on their fifth album, Philly’s filthiest and finest death metal band wanted to acknowledge the bombast of late ’80s and early ’90s heavy metal, while blazing a path forward into uncharted territory. They were awfully successful, too. With ‘Ontological Mysterium’, these guys made a classic of their own.
HORRENDOUS are so close to heavy metal divinity that they can practically taste its delicious, rotten nectar. After all, they did just grace the cover of Decibel.
HORRENDOUS have given us two early glimpses of ‘Ontological Mysterium’. The title track touches down with riffs that churn like an Apache helicopter. while second single “Cult of Shaad’oah” keeps climbing on the backs of duel leads, crashing cymbals and bloody battle cries.
The U.S. progressive death metal band already gave us a glimpse at their new album. Now, HORRENDOUS are leading us deeper inside ‘Ontological Mysterium’ with “Cult of Shaad’oah”.
